getting ready.....

went to the library today to return all the books that i couldn't presently read and picked up this one...fingers starting to itch!  the eye?

new doc equals some actual hope and glimmer of light ahead in this tunnel....ego and condescending platitudes gone replaced with real info and realistic prognosis. well worth trek to baltimore.  bacterial infection gone, viral has moved in....new antibiotics started and steroid to reduce swelling, hoping scarring will heal on its own.  if not, further treatment ahead.  since starting with UMD have gotten really good care that has improved health.  unfortunately, my daughter is chained to a health plan and is basically ignored by her providers...breaks my heart to no end.  if only she could switch.  

made a list of all that needs doing when both eyes back on the job.  despite all the detours and mis-steps, feel quite blessed for the many blessings in my life each day.

  4. Good news from the opthamologist! I've had that book for years (I remember the blog hop when it was launched) but I haven't made anything from it....yet. Hope you can get back to sewing soon.

  5. Prayers continue... I made a quilt from that Cultural Fusions book somewhere back in my quilting history. Let me look...

    ...apparently ten years ago. I believe that I donated this quilt to flood relief after Helene tore through western NC. Its a great book. I hope and pray that you're feeling better every day!
